French actor Gerard Lanvin was born on June 21, 1950 in Boulogne-Billancourt. After dropping out at seventeen, he tried to find his place in life, learning to earn bread. At first it was casual earnings: trading jeans in the flea market, cleaning. But chance, as they say, decides everything. One day he met members of the Splendid troupe, who offered him a job as a handyman. After a while, the young man was invited to try himself in small roles. Lanvena noticed Coluscha and in 1977 offered him his first role in the film You Will Not Get Alsace and Lorraine. But fame came to the young actor only three years later, when in 1980 Gerard Lanven played in Bertrand Tavernier’s “Vacation Week” and Jacques Braille’s “On the Night Streets”. In 1981, the film Strange Case was released, for which Gerard received the Jean Gabin Prize. Then, one after another, there are pictures that strengthen the popularity of the actor: “Heap shooting”, “Specialists”, “Is it reasonable?”,
The price of risk” "Go away!"
In 1985, Gerard Lanven, along with Patrice Leconte and Patrick DeWolf, wrote the script for the film I Want You. The film failed miserably, but there is no evil without good - on the set he met his future wife Jennifer.
In 1988, he starred in the comedy My Best Friends directed by Jean-Marie Poiret and in two films by Claude Lelouch, There Are Days... There Are Moons and A Beautiful Story, playing the role of Jesus. Then there were roles in a series of chamber films “Groundhogs”, “Beloved Son”, “The Man of My Life”. In 1995, for his role in the film “Beloved Son”, he received the Cesar Award for Best Actor. He won the same award again in 2001 for his work in Alien Taste. After the comedy "Full Drive", he starred in the films "Day to Day" and "Professionals".
